2. ~escription of Related Art Preparations for cleaning hard ~urfaces soiled with fats or fatty substances are commonly used, par-ticularly in the field of engineering. The corresponding cleaning operations have hitherto been carried out either with compositions which emulsify fats or fatty soils, or with so-called "cold cleaners".

DE OS 25 29 096 describes cold cleaning prepara-tions for hard surfaces soiled with fats or fatty substances which consist essentially of aqueous emulsions of ethoxylated phenols containing from 8 to 20 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain, and ethoxylated aliphatic alcohols containing from 9 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain. The proposed cleaners are neutral to mildly alkaline and combine good fat-dissolving power with safe handling by virtue of their low alkali-nity or neutrality.
In addition, DE-OS 29 01 927 proposes cleaning pre-parations for removing oily soils which contain fatty alcohol ethoxylates in combination with phenol or lower alkyl phenol ethoxylates. In the cleaning operation, the fatty or oily soil types are removed in the form of an emulsion from the surface to be cleaned. Although the emulsions formed are relatively short~lived, it is several hours before they can be broken.
In addition to the above-mentioned disadvantages which attend most state-of-the-art cleaning prepara-tions, the aforementioned cleaners have such a con-sistency that they run immediately after application to vertical surfaces, for example, to walls or to the ver-tical outer surfaces of motor vehicles, and a prolonged contact time can only be obtained by the addition of a viscosity-increasing agent or by repeated treatment of the surface with the cleaner. Accordingly, the soiled surface is not kept in contact with the cleaner for a sufficiently long period so that repeated application is generally necessary.

3. Summary of the Invention The object of the present invention is to provide an alternative to state-of-the-art preparations in the form of cleaners which may be used without polluting ~Z~6~
the environment. More particularly, the cleaners according to the invention are intended to avoid emulsification of the fatty soils, and to eliminate completely the need to use organic solvents, for example, chlorinated hydrocarbons, esters and fractions from the distillation of mineral oil, gasoline, or various hydrocarbons. The novel cleaners are intended to be applied in any way and, simultaneously, to pro-vide prolonged wetting of the treated surface. In addition, they are intended to develop a cleaning effect at temperatures as low as room temperature and to be biodegradable beyond the legally stipulated limit (Detergents Act, Chemicals Act).

In addition, they are intended to develop a cleaning effect at temperatures as low as room temperature and to be biodegradable beyond the legally stipulated limit (Detergents Act, Chemicals Act).
4. Detailed Description of the Invention It has now suprisingly been found that cleaning preparations having a good cleaning effect and demulsifying properties, while keeping the surface to be cleaned in contact with the cleaner components for a sufficiently long period, ev0n without viscosity-increasing agents, can be obtained by using aqueous combinations of builders or complexing agents with one or more alkanolamines and one or more nonionic surfactants.
Other than in the operating examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients or reaction conditions used herein are to be understood as modified in all instances by the term "about".
Accordingly, the present invention relates to demulsifying cleaning preparations having a prolonged surface-wetting effect which contain the following components:
(a) builders/complexing agents in an amount of from 0.5 to 10% by weight, ~ ~87~
(b) at least one alkanolamine in an amount of from 20 to 60~ by weight, (c) at least one nonionic surfactant in an amo~nt of from 1 to 15~ by weight, and (d) water in an amount which, with components (a), (b) and (c), adds up to 100% by weight, all weights being based on the weight of the cleaning preparations.
The demulsifying cleaning preparations according to the invention may optionally contain solution promoters in an amount of from 1 to 10~ by weight, corro~ion inhibitors for lightweight metal~ in an amount of from 0.15 to 0.25% by weight, corrosion inhibitors for non-ferrous metals in an amount of from 0.2 to 0.4~ by weight, and perfumes or dyes in an amount of from 0 to 1 by weight.
Suitable builders/complexing agents are compounds which complex alkali metal, alkali-earth metal and/or transition metal ions, such as for example, ethylene-diamine tetracetic acid, nitrilotriacetic acid, diethy-lenetriamine pentacetic acid, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-ethylenediamine triacetic acid (Trilon~C) and water-soluble alkali metal salts, pre-ferably sodium salts, thereof. The builders/complexing agents mentioned are preferably u~ed in a quantity of from 2 to 4~ by weight in the cleaning preparations according to the invention.
Alkanolamines are a component of the cleaning pre-parations according to the invention. It is possible to use either one compound of this type or several such compounds mixed in any ratio with one another.
Examples of preferred alkanolamines are diethanolamine, triethanolamine, diisopropanolamine and triisopropano-lamine. Compounds of this type are preferably used in quantities of from 25 to 50~ by weight, based on the G~
weight of the cleaning preparations.
To achieve the effect of "prolonged wetting" of the treated surface desired in accordance with the inven-tion, i.e., prolonged contact of the components of the cleaning preparation with the treated surface after application of the preparation, the use of the alkano-lamine component in a quantity of at least 20% by weight is critical. That is, quantitie~ of alkanola-mine below 20g by weight, based on the aqueous cleaner concentrate according to the invention, would noti-ceably impair the desired ~prolonged wetting effect'l.
The demulsifying cleaning preparation~ according to the invention contain nonionic surfactants as a further component. In this case, too, it is possible to use either a single compound of this type or alternatively a mixture of two or more nonionic surfactants, pro-viding the quantity used is in the range of from 1 to 15~ by weight. Suitable compounds of this type are adductq of 4 moles of ethylene oxide with n- or i-octanol and also adducts of 2 moles of propylene oxide and 5 to 6 moles of ethylene oxide with the C8-alcohols mentioned. The nonionic surfactants are preferably used in a quantity of from 3 to 6% by weight, based on the weight of the cleaning preparations.
Suitable solution promoterq, which may be addi-tionally incorporated in the demulsifying cleaning pre-parations con~i~ting of the above-mentioned components (a), (b), (c) and (d), are aromatic sulfonates, such as cumene sulfonate or butyl glycosulfonate. Corrosion inhibitors for lightweight metals, such as phosphoric acid for example, and/or corrosion inhibitors for non-ferrous metals, such as tolyl triazole for example, may also be added. If desired, the demulsifying cleaning preparations according to the invention may also con-tain perfumes and/or dyes.
.
.
.
i61fi Thus the present invention provides a demulsifying cleaning preparation free of organic solvent and having a prolonged surface-wetting effect consisting essentially of;
(a) a builder/complexing agent in an amount of from about 0.5 to about 10% by weight, ~b) at least one alkanolamine in an amount of from about 20 to about 60~ by weight, (c) at least one nonionic surfactant in a quantity of from 1 to 15% by weight, said nonionic surfactant being selected from the group consisting of the condensation products of n-octanol with 4 moles of ethylene oxide, i-octanol with 4 moles of ethylene oxide, n-octanol with 2 moles of propylene oxide and 5 to 6 moles of ethylene oxide and i-octanol with 2 moles of propylene oxide and 5 to 6 moles of ethylene oxide, and (d) water in an amount which, with components (a), (b) and (c), adds up to 100~ by weight, all weights being based on the weight of said cleaning preparation, and as optional constituents:
(e) a solution promoter in an amount of from about 1 to about 10~ by weight, (f) a corrosion inhibitor for lightweight metals in an amount of from about 0.15 to about 0.25~ by weight said corrosion inhibitor comprising phosphoric acid, (g) a corrosion inhibitor for nonferrous metals in an amount of from about 0.2 to about 0.4% by weight said corroslon inhibitor comprising tolyl triazole, and, (hj a perfume or dye in an amount of from about 0 to about 1~ by weight.

The cleaning preparations are produced by mixing the components mentioned together in their respective quantities using conventional methods. The cleaning preparations are stored and dispatched generally in the form of an aqueou~ concentrate containing the com-bination of components mentioned, on which the quan-tities indicated in % by weight are al~o based.
For cleaning and degreasing lacquered or non-lacquered surfaces of vehicles, engines, floors, walls of workshops, etc., the demulsifying cleaning prepara-tions according to the invention with their prolonged wetting effect are used in any dilution with water.
Aqueous solutions having a concentration of 3~ or higher of the concentrate are used depending upon the method of application and the degree of soiling of the surfaces to be cleaned. With heavy soiling, it is eYen possible to use the concentrate. The cleaning prepara-tions according to the invention may be applied by spraying, immersion or by high-pressure spraying using appropriate equipment. Outstanding cleaning results are obtained even at room temperature. In addition, the composition of the cleaning preparation assures approximately 20 to 30 minute duration wetting of the surface to be cleaned and hence correspondingly long contact of the cleaning components with the soil. Thi~
is particularly important for obtaining a good cleaning result in the cleaning of locomotives, for example.
Apart from the prolonged wetting effect mentioned above, the demulsifying effect is a major advantage over state-of-the-art products. If a use-solution according to the invention having a concentration of from 10 to 50~ is diluted with rinsing waters to a concentration of, or less than, 2~, for example at room temperature, mineral oil additionally introduced automatically separates from the solution almost completely when the ., ~
solution is left standing for 30 minutes. Using corresponding wastewater collecting vessels, the oil content of wastewater can be reduced to less than 50 mg/l solely by mechanical oil separation such as this.
It may be possible, for the purpose of further reducing the oil content, to add iron sulfate or alumi-num sulfate to the wastewater and, in thi way, to obtain flocculation of the impurities. By this addi-tional cleaning step which is known from the prior art,the residual oil content in the wastewater can be reduced to below 10 mg/l.
The invention is further illustrated by the following Examples.
Cleaning effect Degreased steel plates (50 mm x 100 mm x 1 mm) were immersed in a mixture of superheated steam cylinder oil and ASTM III-oil in a ratio by volume of 1:1, removed after 10 minutes and vertically suspended for 4 hours.
The test plates thus pretreated were then immersed in 50~ cleaner solution having the following composition and the time required to obtain complete degreasing (visual assessment) was measured.
(a) cleaning preparation according to the invention (concentrate):
7 ~ by weight nitrilotriacetate trisodium salt (Trilon~A, 38~), 9.5% by weight diethanolamine, 18.0~ by weight triethanolamine, 6.0~ by weight of a condensation product of n-octanol with 4 moles ethylene oxide, 5.0~ by weight sodium cumene sulfonate (40%), and 54.5~ by weight water.
(b) cleaning preparation according to the invention (concentrate):
4.0% by weight ethylenediamine tetracetate, sodium salt (Trilon~B), 30.0~ by weight triethanolamine, 15.0% by weight diethanolamine~
7.0~ by weight of a condensation product of i-octanol with 2 mole3 propylene oxide and 5 to 6 mole~ ethylene oxide, 3.0~ by weight sodium butyl glycol sulfonate, 0.2~ by weight phosphoric acid, 0.2~ by weight tolyl triazole, and 40.6~ by weight water.
Comparison cleaning preparation (concentrate):
5~ by weight of a condensation product of nonylphenol with 5 mole~ ethylene oxide, 2~ by weight sodium cumene sulfonate, 5~ by weight ethylene glycol monobutylether, 1~ by weight sodium hydro~ide, and 87~ by weight water.
Accordingl~, the comparison cleaning preparation contained a surfactant having a strong emulsifying effect.
The cleaning effect of the preparations according to the invention was distinctly better than that of the comparison cleaning preparation. A time factor of 0.7 in favor of the cleaning preparations acording to the invention was obtained, i.e., the cleaning preparations according to the invention produced the complete degreasing required in a much shorter time compared with the comparision cleaner.

Prolonged wettin~:
Prolonged wetting for a certain period is essential to obtain an optimal cleaning result, above all, in the external cleaning of vehicles. Cleaners ~a) and (b) mentioned in Example 1 were diluted with water in a ratio by volume of 1:10. A steel plate (50 mm x 100 mm x 1 mm) coated with polyurethane lacquer was immersed in the corresponding cleaning solutions, removed after a few minutes and vertically suspended. After 25 minu-tes, a film of liquid which could be wiped with the finger was still present on the treated lacquer surfaces.
Demulsification:
The following components were mixed in a 2-liter glass beaker and stirred for 10 minutes at half the depth of the liquid (16/15 mm propeller stirrer, speed 800 revolutions/minute).
1620 ml water, 20 ml cleaner concentrate of Example 1(a) and (b), 2 ml of a mixture of superheated steam cylinder oil and ASTM III-oil in a ratio by volume of 1: 1.
After 10 minutes, the mixture was transferred to a 2-liter separation funnel and left standing for 30 minutes. A~ter 30 minutes, a 500 ml liquid sample was run off from the separation funnel. This water sample contained only small amounts of residual oil, i.e., less than 50 mg/l.
0.75 g anhydrous aluminum sulfate was added to another 500 ml sample of the solution drained off from the separation funnel and the pH-value was adjusted to 7.3 with 1 N sodium hydroxide. The solution was then ]eft standing for 30 minutes. The flocculent deposit ~ 3266~i ~ormed was filtered off by means of a filter (NN 651 1/4). The residual oil content of the filtrate wa~
less than 10 mg/l.
Corrosion inhibition In addition to prolonged surface wetting, the film of product remaining on the cleaned parts after treat-ment therewith a~so provides for essential temporary corrosion inhibition. This is particularly important in the cleaning of engine compartments.
Testing of the product for corrosion inhibition in storage was carried out by the so-called "plate con-ditioning test". ST 1405 steel plates were cleaned with trichloroethylene and then immersed in 10~ solu-tions of the cleaners according to the invention.After 5 minutes, the plates were removed and dried at room temperature. The plates were stored in a con-ditioning box at 23C/100~ relative air humidity.
Plates treated in this way showed no signs of corro-sion, even after 14 days.
The addition of 0.15 to 0.25~ by weight phosphoricacid to the product concentrate and/or 0.2 to 0.4~ by weight tolyl triazole to the product concentrate afforded lightweight metal surfaces, such as aluminum or magnesium surfaces, for example, and nonferrous metal surfaces complete protection against corro3ion.

The builders/complexing agents mentioned are preferably u~ed in a quantity of from 2 to 4~ by weight in the cleaning preparations according to the invention.
Alkanolamines are a component of the cleaning pre-parations according to the invention. It is possible to use either one compound of this type or several such compounds mixed in any ratio with one another.

The cleaning preparations are produced by mixing the components mentioned together in their respective quantities using conventional methods. The cleaning preparations are stored and dispatched generally in the form of an aqueou~ concentrate containing the com-bination of components mentioned, on which the quan-tities indicated in % by weight are al~o based.
For cleaning and degreasing lacquered or non-lacquered surfaces of vehicles, engines, floors, walls of workshops, etc., the demulsifying cleaning prepara-tions according to the invention with their prolonged wetting effect are used in any dilution with water.
Aqueous solutions having a concentration of 3~ or higher of the concentrate are used depending upon the method of application and the degree of soiling of the surfaces to be cleaned. With heavy soiling, it is eYen possible to use the concentrate. The cleaning prepara-tions according to the invention may be applied by spraying, immersion or by high-pressure spraying using appropriate equipment. Outstanding cleaning results are obtained even at room temperature. In addition, the composition of the cleaning preparation assures approximately 20 to 30 minute duration wetting of the surface to be cleaned and hence correspondingly long contact of the cleaning components with the soil. Thi~
is particularly important for obtaining a good cleaning result in the cleaning of locomotives, for example.
Apart from the prolonged wetting effect mentioned above, the demulsifying effect is a major advantage over state-of-the-art products. If a use-solution according to the invention having a concentration of from 10 to 50~ is diluted with rinsing waters to a concentration of, or less than, 2~, for example at room temperature, mineral oil additionally introduced automatically separates from the solution almost completely when the ., ~
solution is left standing for 30 minutes. Using corresponding wastewater collecting vessels, the oil content of wastewater can be reduced to less than 50 mg/l solely by mechanical oil separation such as this.
It may be possible, for the purpose of further reducing the oil content, to add iron sulfate or alumi-num sulfate to the wastewater and, in thi way, to obtain flocculation of the impurities. By this addi-tional cleaning step which is known from the prior art,the residual oil content in the wastewater can be reduced to below 10 mg/l.
The invention is further illustrated by the following Examples.
Cleaning effect Degreased steel plates (50 mm x 100 mm x 1 mm) were immersed in a mixture of superheated steam cylinder oil and ASTM III-oil in a ratio by volume of 1:1, removed after 10 minutes and vertically suspended for 4 hours.
The test plates thus pretreated were then immersed in 50~ cleaner solution having the following composition and the time required to obtain complete degreasing (visual assessment) was measured.
(a) cleaning preparation according to the invention (concentrate):
7 ~ by weight nitrilotriacetate trisodium salt (Trilon~A, 38~), 9.5% by weight diethanolamine, 18.0~ by weight triethanolamine, 6.0~ by weight of a condensation product of n-octanol with 4 moles ethylene oxide, 5.0~ by weight sodium cumene sulfonate (40%), and 54.5~ by weight water.
(b) cleaning preparation according to the invention (concentrate):
4.0% by weight ethylenediamine tetracetate, sodium salt (Trilon~B), 30.0~ by weight triethanolamine, 15.0% by weight diethanolamine~
7.0~ by weight of a condensation product of i-octanol with 2 mole3 propylene oxide and 5 to 6 mole~ ethylene oxide, 3.0~ by weight sodium butyl glycol sulfonate, 0.2~ by weight phosphoric acid, 0.2~ by weight tolyl triazole, and 40.6~ by weight water.
Comparison cleaning preparation (concentrate):
5~ by weight of a condensation product of nonylphenol with 5 mole~ ethylene oxide, 2~ by weight sodium cumene sulfonate, 5~ by weight ethylene glycol monobutylether, 1~ by weight sodium hydro~ide, and 87~ by weight water.
Accordingl~, the comparison cleaning preparation contained a surfactant having a strong emulsifying effect.
The cleaning effect of the preparations according to the invention was distinctly better than that of the comparison cleaning preparation. A time factor of 0.7 in favor of the cleaning preparations acording to the invention was obtained, i.e., the cleaning preparations according to the invention produced the complete degreasing required in a much shorter time compared with the comparision cleaner.

Prolonged wettin~:
Prolonged wetting for a certain period is essential to obtain an optimal cleaning result, above all, in the external cleaning of vehicles. Cleaners ~a) and (b) mentioned in Example 1 were diluted with water in a ratio by volume of 1:10. A steel plate (50 mm x 100 mm x 1 mm) coated with polyurethane lacquer was immersed in the corresponding cleaning solutions, removed after a few minutes and vertically suspended. After 25 minu-tes, a film of liquid which could be wiped with the finger was still present on the treated lacquer surfaces.
Demulsification:
The following components were mixed in a 2-liter glass beaker and stirred for 10 minutes at half the depth of the liquid (16/15 mm propeller stirrer, speed 800 revolutions/minute).
1620 ml water, 20 ml cleaner concentrate of Example 1(a) and (b), 2 ml of a mixture of superheated steam cylinder oil and ASTM III-oil in a ratio by volume of 1: 1.
After 10 minutes, the mixture was transferred to a 2-liter separation funnel and left standing for 30 minutes. A~ter 30 minutes, a 500 ml liquid sample was run off from the separation funnel. This water sample contained only small amounts of residual oil, i.e., less than 50 mg/l.
0.75 g anhydrous aluminum sulfate was added to another 500 ml sample of the solution drained off from the separation funnel and the pH-value was adjusted to 7.3 with 1 N sodium hydroxide. The solution was then ]eft standing for 30 minutes. The flocculent deposit ~ 3266~i ~ormed was filtered off by means of a filter (NN 651 1/4). The residual oil content of the filtrate wa~
less than 10 mg/l.
Corrosion inhibition In addition to prolonged surface wetting, the film of product remaining on the cleaned parts after treat-ment therewith a~so provides for essential temporary corrosion inhibition. This is particularly important in the cleaning of engine compartments.
Testing of the product for corrosion inhibition in storage was carried out by the so-called "plate con-ditioning test". ST 1405 steel plates were cleaned with trichloroethylene and then immersed in 10~ solu-tions of the cleaners according to the invention.After 5 minutes, the plates were removed and dried at room temperature. The plates were stored in a con-ditioning box at 23C/100~ relative air humidity.
Plates treated in this way showed no signs of corro-sion, even after 14 days.
The addition of 0.15 to 0.25~ by weight phosphoricacid to the product concentrate and/or 0.2 to 0.4~ by weight tolyl triazole to the product concentrate afforded lightweight metal surfaces, such as aluminum or magnesium surfaces, for example, and nonferrous metal surfaces complete protection against corro3ion.
